slamming Joe for all the wrong things he did while VP. No way for Joe to defend because there would never be any specific charge. DT desperately wanted to keep singing "Send him to jail" during all his campaign rallys.

In 2006 Kerik pleaded guilty in Bronx Supreme Court to two unrelated ethics violations (unclassified misdemeanors) and was ordered to pay $221,000 in fines. Kerik then pleaded guilty in 2009 in the Southern District of New York to eight federal charges, including tax fraud and false statements, and on February 18, 2010, was sentenced to four years in federal prison.
